Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9314472A1] A laser scanner system (2) including a compact, lightweight laser scanning engine (4) which permits reading the symbols while the hands of the user are free. The engine is coupled to a remote unit (10) forming a portion of the system (2). The engine (4) is arranged to be mounted on the wrist or mounted on the head of the user while the remote unit may be mounted on a belt or holster worn by the user. Alternatively, the remote unit may be located at a counter or some other stationary structure. The laser engine (4) is automatically turned on when the engine (4) is moved to place an object in front of the laser engine. The system (2) requires no trigger or other hand operated device to initiate the laser beam, and the scanning, receiving, and signal and data processing operations.
